Paph Quiberon Bay
 
I bought this a few years ago at a close out sale of an Orchid grower here
in the Twin cities.

Waited, sometimes patiently, sometimes not, especially not when a couple
months ago it started a spike (ok inflorescence). Checked it every day as it
poked along.

Finally it's open. Apparently as open as its going to get. I noticed that
the pouch wasn't opening up nice and round like other slippers, I even put
my finger in it to make sure it wasn't stuck. It wasn't.

Tonight I finally decided to bring it up from the light room for display and
finally noticed the pouch, and only the pouch, is UPSIDE DOWN.

Will take pics soon and post to abpo.

I know, it's a first bloom, maybe next year.

Anyone else had one like that?

Bob
